Just to be picky, that's not necessarily the case.  LCDs can show fonts
quite nicely without it.  But if you're using a system that draws fonts
in an ugly manner without it (e.g. FC3, FC4, haven't tested FC5), yes
it's the case.  It seems to be the design of the fonts used by Fedora,
as well as the font rendering system.  Other things can draw very neat
looking fonts that only occupy one pixel width.
